 Hey guys, so here is my review of my new slinger bag So before I get into it, it's what say I'm not sponsored by slinger bag and they're not paying me to do this video I'm purely doing it because I've had lots of requests and a few people talking about some of the videos that I've posted of me using The slinger bag I thought be good and useful for you to have a little bit more information on it So hopefully this video be good for you if you're looking to buy a ball machine of some kind Or if you've been more specifically looking at the slinger bag, but want to know a little bit more about it so Initially when you open the box, this is what you get now reason it's called slinger bag is because You open this pocket and there is a bag a decent amount of space This goes all the way down to the bottom. I can fit two rackets in here a pair of trainers and clothes Whatever you need for the tennis court. So that's a really useful function and quite unique to the slinger bag This pocket here This is where you put the tennis balls in so I've got 72 tennis balls in here I believe it can store up to 144 which again as far as ball machines go is quite standard But just useful in the way that it's so portable. So It's like a luggage bag wheels Transport it around it's fairly heavy, but because it's on wheels It's easy to transport and you've got these handles here To lift the bag if you want to to go in your car. Let's take it to the tennis course Got some more pockets as well. So you've got a small pocket here This is for your phone. So it's a protective pocket here and In this pocket. I've got one of the accessories it's a Phone holder which you can clamp onto the slinger bag Pop your phone in here great for video analysis and Also in this pocket, which is a really good function is a USB charger So if you are recording a session on your phone and your battery's dying plug it in here brilliant function In this pocket, this is for Drinks and towels are slightly bigger pocket down the side. I've got the charger in here Depending on where you live in the world This is a UK adapter, but this gets plugged in to the front to charge up and sling it back on the other side We've got one last pocket and this one here It's got a picture of a wallet and a set of keys the little clip that you can put the keys to I've got the slinger bag Remote in there to really useful bit of kit you can you know turn it on and off Change the oscillation from the other end of the court rather than having to keep walking back to the machine Onto this slinger part of the slinger bag. So in here This is where the balls are launched from so You've got a number of Different buttons and knobs. So you plug the charger in here There's a little port as well for you to plug in the oscillator Which comes in the bigger bundle pack, which I'll talk about in a sec. You've got feed Knob, so that the feed knob is turned to beginner all the way through to advance So this helps you to adjust the intervals between each feed So if you've got it on beginner, there'll be a big amount of time in between each feed if you put it to advanced It'll be a much shorter amount of time. So the feeds will come quickly one after the other the other Knob at the top is for speed. So that is the speed of the oncoming ball So again, if you have it on beginner the ball will travel slowly through the air if you put it through to advanced It will come through pretty quickly Now you can clip this panel back You've got a little clip here, which clips back here to keep it out of the way And then finally the last little adjustment that you can make to your launcher In this sip compartment here you have another Adjustment where you can change the trajectory of the ball so you can change the height in which the ball is fed So if you want to practice some higher lupia shots You can put it on to that high trajectory or if you wanted to receive some shots lower and closer to the net You can change that as well. So functionality is pretty good. So That's what it looks like my review on how it performs I've played with a number of different ball machines before and as far as value goes this one Is at the cheaper end? so I know in The states it sells for around six hundred and fifty dollars Now it's more expensive in the UK because it's made out in the States And I think at the moment there's only one retailer in the UK I'll add the links to the in the comment section below But I believe it sells at the moment for around seven hundred and eighty pounds that includes the ball machine The ball collector tube which I've got here, which is a standard ball collector tube You can pick up the balls and pour them into back into the ball hopper here It comes with an oscillator Now the oscillator is just a device that sits underneath at the bottom of the slinger bag You put it on top plug it in and you can change the setting from side to side So rather than having the feed coming at you at a constant You can have it more random feeling from side to side really good function if you want to work on your footwork I've used that quite a lot, and it's been really really good So yeah, you get the slinger bag you get the ball tube you get an oscillator you get the phone holder which claps on to here which I showed you before and Also, you get a another tennis bag So it's that I think it's a three-racket hole which can go in here So really good bundle good value and if you compare it to some other ball machines out there it is pretty cheap and As far as performance goes so far so good now initially when I had my first few hits with it I found that the ball came through quite quickly more quickly than I expected Although the ball speed advertised looks fairly standard fairly slow the ball has quite a bit of spin on it So when it hits the floor it actually kicks up and and speeds up towards you So it took me a while to get used to that and I played around with the ball speed and the feed into intervals And the trajectory as well and once you get at the setting right It's much more comfortable. It allows you to have a nice time I've spent some time working on my ground strokes in the service box I've worked back to the baseline if you put it on the full speed and you go from baseline to baseline It's quite a fast dog coming ball So it's suitable for beginners all the way through to advanced players I've also worked on drive volleys and Another really cool function if you set the settings down to the lowest ball speed and the lowest feed speed You can actually use it as a feeder for serving so you can set it up Stand alongside it catch a ball hit your serve and because the intervals quite slow gives you a bit of time The ball will pop up again, and you can catch it and do another serve So sounds lazy, but rather than walking over to the hop of picking up a ball doing your serve walking back You can actually stay in the same position hit your serves and the machine will just throw the ball out to you So make use of the phone holder really good tool for recording yourself playing tennis and with the ball machine at the other end You know, it's definite no-brainer for lots of repetitions and a chance to see yourself in action Rather than constantly having to have somebody at the other end In these times especially, you know If you don't want to be interacting with other people and you want to have some time on your own on the tennis court Away from other people getting a ball machine is a fantastic investment The only thing I haven't seen is it's durability so over time time will tell but it comes with I think I've got a four-year warranty Which is great. I mean hopefully things don't go wrong within the four years It seems to be pretty good so far and haven't heard of any things going bad or wrong with them So it's been a good investment for me and if you're thinking of getting a ball machine Definitely, I would recommend this but do have a look at some others and see what you think So I hope you enjoyed this video Let me know if I missed anything out like I said my first review I've done So if there is anything else that you'd like to know about this in the bag Pop a comment below and I'll get back to you straight away And if you like this video and you'd like to see more make sure you click subscribe and I will see you soon
